It’s a bit strange that it has taken Ye this long to release monotone versions of the shoe, having done so in the original release of V1s, namely the ‘Pirate Black’ 350 and the ‘Bred’ 350 V2. Maybe he’s playing his cards right to extend the hype as long as he possibly could. We’ll never know.
What we do know is that such a colourway will hit the Yeezy 700 model first, and it’s got us drooling all over its blackness. Aptly named ‘Vanta,’ suitably picked from a material with the same name that’s said to be one of the darkest mankind has produced, the 700 silhouette gets draped in black, and pretty much nothing else. That includes the outsole, midsole, laces, and paneling.
It is interesting to note that the 700 V2 silhouette is used, the same one as the ‘Static’ rather than following the footsteps of the ‘Analog’ colourway, and as historical purchases go, the 700 V2 seems to be the more popular iteration. What this means is that this will be a hotly contested model, and one that’s sure to stand out in the crowd.
No official store list is out yet, but we know that an online release will be available on June 6 an in-store release on 31st May for a price of RM 1400. A generous run of full size, grade school, and kids sizes are also available, so you can lace up your whole family tree with em. Ya’ll copping?
